20 things i’ve learned in my 20 years of life

Today is an exciting day for me as it is my 20th birthday!! Yes, I get the calendar emoji for my birthday, are you jealous?? Jk but I love to throw that out there. I always thought that the calendar emoji was specific to your birthday, but several years ago someone told me that it was the day of World Emoji Day, which happens to fall upon my birthday! I cannot believe I am 20- I sadly cannot feel the same feels as I did as a teenager when listening to Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream. However, I’m glad to be entering into my twenties, as I feel like they are going to be great. Just like last year, I am sharing a new set of things I’ve learned in my 20 years of life.
